If you watch shows like "No Reservations" a traveler who is competent in gastronomy will avoid near 5-star restaurants. They are largely copies of an international standard you could get anywhere, certainly much closer to home.

That's a complicated discussion. To keep it short, I think different societies are prone to different institutions being centers of organized crime because organized criminals are rational evaluators of power structures and risk.

I'm aware of that but my examples are not in the US.

And of course a big problem has always been that Halliburton can't conscript you to improve their bottom line when fighting a foreign war. Good thing we are fixing that.

I know a few people who test negative on PCR tests but have identical symptoms due to a flu. Given the insane rate of omicron I wouldn't assume all these tests were wrong if one of them now tests positive..

AFAICT you can't just rely on USB mass storage, it is expecting their app to be present. I think there's an edit you can make to their MySQL database and maybe a calibre plugin does that?

Interesting. From your headline here I was hoping that you used the standard Google snippet with an override of the tracking host. I think it would be more powerful to save whatever the same GA setup would save.

The reference is to natural freshwater, especially if it is stagnant. Most travel clinics will give advice against swimming in ponds, etc.

I'm not sure I understand what the cohort collaborative is doing but it sounds like being a patient in their matching that tests negative for COVID would be more likely if you had another reason to cough.

It's quite the paradox that people are off doing weird stuff but they have no bootloader. The pmOS page refers to U-Boot like it exists and people seem to be working on the SoC and eink display at the rate they can. Most other devices

It is still a larger attack surface. A salesperson can give a false impression about the value of the ongoing relationship over the transaction and make a ~promise that is not legally binding. I.e. if you give the actual date you need somet

I'm still mystified as to why no country has switched over to ultra-light rail. The costs of asphalt projects seem to dwarf the cost of doing anything reasonable and leave AI as an exercise for the over confident.

Corporations are unwilling to let non-executive wages become a larger percentage of their costs. They are perfectly willing to spend on other things. It is rather remarkable that the consumer market works at all, yet it is almost overheatin

While servo shares an ecosystem with Firefox it is far more independent than chromium is so I would suggest it is the most likely emerging alternative browser engine and browsers built on it could become roughly as different from firefox as

From time to time I use surf, but it isn't a fair example of what is hard. Suckless.org's philosophy means you may need to recompile for any configuration change and something like trusting a self-signed cert is often done via con

There's definite vaccine rate differences in industries, but much of that might be largely explained by age demographics of industries.. Given two people who WFH the vaccinated one can conveniently eat in a restaurant and go to the gym

I don't really get the example of being able to work from home, but I would expect differences are extremely regional/national. In some countries there's a formal labor law for doctors notes after X days that is known by all

Of course and there's no reason to refute this. The reason we got here is that the quantatative measures a Bank would use are biased by actual societal bias. This is a situation like asking why your ML became racist. Letting a bank cho

Spices, food oils, mined metals and fabric are all valuables that are brought to coastal cities in organized trade causing urbanization. The existence of many of those cities, their bazaar and their mosque is all to do with the transition t

I'm also optimistic, and I think starting with one of these porting processes often leads to an interesting set of yak shaves. I've been following the progress of the most active NixOS developer: https://github.com&#x2F

I suppose it is technically true that we don't call commercial television "free television" but TV broadcasters don't really establish any terms and conditions. Informally, I think they say they are a free service in PR

I don't really get their announcement. The company brand stuff they find worthwhile is to be in no way tied to actual open positions? This is a feature to help companies that aren't hiring make people feel dissatiafied with their

Why would the level of reaction from tissue exposed to a higher than intended dose of a novel protein be the same as its reaction to a higher dose of a protein it has been primed to react to?

It looks likely that everyone who lives ten more years is going to encounter this virus at least once and there is a frequency of comorbidities first discovered at the morgue that needs to be considered by a "healthy" person.

I don't really get your first paragraph. Medieval people fought about religion and religion usually correlated to origin. I.e. the Sicilians integrated with the portion of Moors that converted.

It would be kind of crazy if visible ethnic diversity didn't drop consistently generation after generation after the Roman empire moved east, but especially between 1200 and 1700 given waves of xenophobic hate, evictions of the moors a

You can't have it both ways, if stopping candy leads to cigarette money then cigarettes are healthy because anyone who smokes has less money for heroin.

I would assume there are also more than 70 pages of docs across these 6 cloud/SaaS options for any language that wouldn't be easier to attack as hopelessly obscure.
